i bought team fortress 2 but i found out my computer doesn't have pixel shader so its a complete waste of money to anyone who doesn't have pixel shader. Now i have to play the crappy 360 version where there are no class updates.
@RaWxGAMERx You race with your team's ballon against the other team's ballon to get first to the capture points, there most be at least one player near the wheel for the ballon to move.
The winning team is that who captured the most points, if there's a tie there is another race to the beginning.
This is actually an old version of the map. You can get version 2b on FPSbanana or on my blog. It's pretty cool my map turned out to be so popular. :)
I don't understand how you can love this map. The gameplay is very restrained. You have to the move the balloon by standing at the front, and prevent the other team by getting on their balloon boat and killing them. Once this happens, the team with the advantage will have the advantage through the rest of the map, and it's pointless to do anything else. No flanking options, no shortcuts to setup defense at the next cp, just braindead 10 minutes of shooting at balloon boats. Why do you like it?
@TxCxMassacerx Okay, I get this is 2 years old, but was somebody ACTUALLY arguing that a custom map has no point? I mean, does a normal game of cp_dustbowl have a point anyways?
Theres more to it than that, sure the beginning does set the stance for the whole game, but that's not it. A good sniper can prevent the boat from moving allowing yours to catch up. A good offense at the beginning can set you up for victory early on. Plus in the revised versions, you have to cap all four points, with shortcuts available to you if you are on point one and they just capped point two.
Yeah: I love this map, too, but it's a little unfair on the blues: their balloon docks under the red one at one point, so the reds can all jump on the top and snipe them as they get out. (fun if you're sniping, not fun otherwise).
i like this map aswell i was playing as a medic and i had a heavy with me so we killed so many as possibly at the small islands until we died thats a good tactic so our teammates we're far away from the enemies
but in 99.99% you will get a team of 9-year old kids, who think they are SOOOOOO cool, and just SCREAM SWARE WORDS IN THE WORST QUALITY MIC YOU HAVE EVER HEARD
Nice DKC final boss remix. Honestly, though, I hate this map. It's really overplayed, especially on zf servers. Why someone had the idea to make this a zf map is beyond me...
on the balloon maps, the best scout weps are the force-a.nature ofcourse. and the bonk atomic punch since it makes u indestructible for a little time so u can stay on the wheel
i played zombei fort mode on ot zombies mostly won and it lets you keep the scout base ball bat and ball,then a red heavy shot and i got to be red scout it was a glitch or something but it was cool :)
No one would be able to power the boats... duh... They would stay in the spawn, and never move all through the game. People would be frightened to leave the spawn...
what video capture program do you use? I uploaded a vid like this, because balloon race is an amazing custom map, but it doesn't have sound. I want to use sound.
the best tactic is to hold back the other team and when u go to the last point if they are far back enough put an assload of turrents and dont cap it pisses the other team off but the other team has to suck ass
We just recently put this map up on our server, and I'll tell ya, our players cannot get enough of this place. I can't go in one time without having someone say "WEN CAN WE GO TO BALLOON RACE!!!"
oh god. I hope TF2 turns into CS 1.6. I still get a warm, fuzzy feeling inside thinking about those customs. I think I might have to get back into TF2
I'd actually reccommend buying TF2 for the PC (you can get it by itself). Off steam, I think it's $20. If you a couple of months for the next update they do it for $15 I think
